本文提出了一种关于爱情的三角理论。根据该理论，爱有三个组成部分：(A)亲密，包括亲密、联系和亲密的感觉；(B)激情，包括导致浪漫、身体吸引和性满足的驱动力；以及(C)决定/承诺，包括短期内一个人爱另一个人的决定，以及长期保持这种爱的承诺。一个人经历的爱的数量取决于这三个组成部分的绝对力量，而一个人经历的爱的种类取决于他们相对于彼此的力量。这三个组成部分相互作用，并与它们产生的行为和产生它们的行为相互作用，从而形成许多不同类型的爱的体验。爱的三角理论包含了某些其他理论，可以解释研究文献中的一些经验发现，以及许多人第一手熟悉的一些经验。有人提出，三角理论为理解构成亲密关系的爱的许多方面提供了一个相当全面的基础。
This article presents a triangular theory of love. According to the theory, love has three components:(a) intimacy, which encompasses the feelings of closeness, connectedness, and bondedness one experiences in loving relationships;(b) passion, which encompasses the drives that lead to romance, physical attraction, and sexual consummation; and (c) decision/commitment, which encompasses, in the short term, the decision that one loves another, and in the long term, the commitment to maintain that love. The amount of love one experiences depends on the absolute strength of these three components, and the kind of love one experiences depends on their strengths relative to each other. The three components interact with each other and with the actions that they produce and that produce them so as to form a number of different kinds of loving experiences. The triangular theory of love subsumes certain other theories and can account for a number of empirical findings in the research literature, as well as for a number of experiences with which many are familiar firsthand. It is proposed that the triangular theory provides a rather comprehensive basis for understanding many aspects of the love that underlies close relationships.
